[julesisagimp]

this is gold

[Makaveli456]

Unfortunately, this is the only SD track that I like.

[DesarioMusic]

This is madlib but its not under YNQ

its by his other jazzcats persona group called SOUND DIRECTIONS

[noiz87]

@DesarioMusic

Yeah I know, I've put ynq cuz it makes it easier to be spotted.

Later on people can dig out the real persona, it's no fun givin all the hints :)

[deny087]

@DesarioMusic it is ynq. its on the album funky side of life by ynq

[o0EPITOME0o]

@catfightsarecool Madlib Does His YNQ Shit Live Mostly. He Does Setup Basslines To Follow Though, But It Acts More Of Like A Metronome.

[Bapethatboombox]

I just copped YNQ's Stevie Wonder tribute LP, most def. worth the 15 bucks

[AcTNBumpChannel]

Man I love this beat

[heythatsDJ]

def favorite 'd 

[noiz87]

@heythatsDJ noiz five'd

[lis880]

@catfightsarecool no not when he does ynq stuff all of it instruments

[clcproduction]

@catfightsarecool Nope, all real instruments. Madlib does most of the stuff, don't think he plays any horns/guitar though, which are played by others.

[youthXattack]

@clcproduction Truthfully madlib really only does percussion on all his jazz cats shit, well for the most part atleast.

[noiz87]

@catfightsarecool Hmm, not sure.

There are people here (like Munoz783) who are more educated in the ways of the Mad One :)

[poppycop]

@noiz87 I am sure. Madlib composed many of these pieces with a jazz group compiled by himself. Some of the tracks under the Yesterday's New Quintet & Sound Directions monikers are remakes, or remixes, or other jazz songs. This I think is an orginal composition.

[noiz87]

@poppycop Yeah, I'm pretty sure we're talking about "real" instruments here, now that I've heard more of Madlib's jazz work and projects :)

[stopjoshing]

tight!

[4mful]

much love for the upload man, do you think you could send me the pic, bless

[noiz87]

I appreciate your appreciation :)

Sure thing, check your pm's

[xXunt0uchableXx]

umm i'm confused..is the alias for this song sound directions or yesterday's new quintet?

[noiz87]

It's Sound Directions. I've put the title ynquintet to give the song more listens, people are more familiar with YNQ project :)

[SeymourSnide]

Thanks for posting this. I think Madlib is at is best when he's working with a well defined melody--like on this song, or Stevie Wonder's "I Am Singing." If anyone knows of other Madlib covers in that vein, let me know.

(By the way, I recorded Tom Jobim's bossa nova song "Wave" in the style of YNQ. It's not nearly as good as Madlib's work, but if you like this kind of stuff you might find it interesting. It's posted on my channel.

[noiz87]

I'll gladly check it out :)

[clcproduction]

@SeymourSnide Great Day on Madvillainy was a cover of Stevie Wonder's How Can You Believe?

[AcTNBumpChannel]

holy crap this rocks!

[DZA9mm]

SUch A BEAUITIFUL ALBUM

[Munoz783]

Lib should do a cover of "Não Tem Nada Não" by Marcos Valle

[noiz87]

Indeed :)

But I don't know how much he's into digging the same crates twice :(

[Munoz783]

He's sampled/covered multiple Bobbi Humphrey songs from the same album, so why not, lol

-muñoz

[noiz87]

You're more versatile in knowing his work than me, thanks for the heads up :)

[Munoz783]

Yep I'm a Madlib/Dilla collector and proud to say it, even to people that don't listen to them :D

--muñoz

[noiz87]

I'm still gathering all his work, there's a lot to get :D that cat madlib is keeping busy all the time, someone should freeze him for a year or something :)

[Munoz783]

Hardest working man in show business

[noiz87]

That's why we love him :D

[julescoltrane]

sound directions is my favorite of his live projects. very cohesive joint

[noiz87]

right on, indeed he dropped some heavy stuff in sd :)

[TNTJahv1er]

nice style no doubt, thanks.

[noiz87]

Hardly, might be really really slight oscillations due to everything being hand-put together and him being stoned, but most of his beats are on-beat, only heard a few ones that had errors. This ain't one of them, I've heard the track quite a few times. In the end, drums are the beat, beat can't be off beat, only off-melody (melody being the culprit :) )

[VoodooRhythmSound]

Blown away by this track

[ris3andfall]

ty 4 the post been 4 this 4 the longest......

[noiz87]

Yeah i also wondered why it isn't upped already :)
